How does one know when an LED product is out of photometric specifications?

Our warranty allows for a minimum of 5 years of operation while ensuring the beacon meets the FAA's minimum photometric requirements. LED's do not "burn out" similar to incandescent. An LED will have a slight degradation of light output with use. This is similar to the degradation of a strobe tube.

How many LED's can be burned out before one is out of spec?

According to the FAA's addendum, all LED based fixtures approved by the FAA are required to meet the minimum photometric's with up to 25% of the LED's not contributing to the photometric's of the fixture. After 25% the fixture shall cease to operate.

How will the units withstand a lightning strike?

Depends on the intensity level of the strike. Each unit has a significant level of protection. Please see our manual for specific information.

What are the true cost savings if we currently replace our lamps every year; every two years?

This depends on your current material & overhead costs as well as what you pay per kwh.

Can rain, snow or other contaminants enter into the beacon and adversely affect the performance of the LED's or the fixture?
